The typical respiratory rate for a healthy adult at rest is 12â20 breaths per minute. Average resting respiratory rates by age are: 1  birth to 6 weeks: 30â60 breaths per minute. 2  6 months: 25â40 breaths per minute. normal respiratory rate is termed eupnea, an increased respiratory rate is termed tachypnea and a lower-than-normal respiratory rate is termed bradypnea. Breathing (which in organisms with lungs is called ventilation and includes inhalation and exhalation) is a part of respiration.
Respiratory rate (respiration rate, breathing frequency, breathing rate, ventilation rate, pulmonary ventilation rate, and respiratory frequency) is the number of breaths that a person takes during one minute. The normal value for an adult is 10-12 breaths per minute at rest.
